What are greenhouse gases, also called Earth heating gases?
Answer
Carbon dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, chloro fluoro carbons, hydrocarbons, and methane are called Earth heating gases. They trap radiation and prevent heat from leaving the earth's surface.
How do greenhouse gases help maintain Earth’s temperature?
Answer
Greenhouse gases trap radiation and stop heat from escaping the earth's surface. This helps maintain the temperature of the earth.
Why does excess presence of greenhouse gases cause global warming?
Answer
When too many greenhouse gases collect in the atmosphere, too much heat is trapped. This leads to excess global warming.
What is the main purpose of the greenhouse effect simulation activity?
Answer
The objective is to investigate the impact of greenhouse effect through simulation and to search methods to reduce global warming.
Why are two identical glasses used in the experiment?
Answer
Two identical glasses of the same material are used so that the comparison is fair. Any difference in heating can then be linked to the covered and uncovered conditions.
What must be done before placing the glasses in sunlight?
Answer
Equal quantity of water should be put in both glasses, and the temperature of the water in both glasses should be noted using a thermometer before the experiment.
What is the role of the inverted glass bowl or jar in the experiment?
Answer
One glass is covered completely with an inverted glass bowl or jar to simulate the greenhouse effect. The other glass remains uncovered as the control.
Why are the glasses kept in open space for the experiment?
Answer
Both glasses must be placed in open space so that sunlight falls directly on them. This helps show the difference in heating clearly.
